About this ebook

In this modern-day "lively re-imagining of classical mythology" (Deborah Harkness), when a string of women are murdered in an ancient pagan ritual, Selene DiSilvia -- known by some as the goddess Artemis -- hears their cries for help and takes up her bow once more.

Manhattan has many secrets. Some are older than the city itself.

The city sleeps. In the predawn calm, Selene DiSilva finds the body of a young woman washed ashore, gruesomely mutilated and wreathed in laurel. Her ancient rage returns, along with the memory of a promise she made long ago -- when her name was Artemis.

Jordanna Max Brodsky's acclaimed debut sets Greek Gods against a modern Manhattan backdrop, creating an unputdownable blend of myth and mystery.

Fantastic so far. Halfway through and I think I got the mystery figured out but to the books credit you want to keep reading because what if it's not a correct theory. Very good characters and relationships both platonic and romantic. Can't wait to read the next one.

Artemis is my Shero! Greek mythology was my favorite im high school and enjoyed seeing my favorite Olympian shine! Also, loved the historical reference.
